Welcome to your personal class wiki page. Only you should edit this wiki and no other page unless designated by Mr. Miller. It is very important that you follow this protocol. If you edit another student's page it will show in the history of that page and you will be penalized or reprimanded appropriately. This should be a fun activity and will be part of your grade.

The color change
It turned black
Yea it didn’t fall out
It went up
The oxygen in the air went in the copper
Relative Reactivities of Metals Lab questions. 1.) Mg 2.) Ag 3.)None of them. 4.)Mg, Zn, Cu, Ag. 5.)The outside is copper because copper does not react well and makes a good metal to put on a coin because you wouldn’t want it reacting if it was in your pocket or hands, Zinc reacts more than copper which is why copper is used. 6.) a.) silver because it did not react with any of the chemicals. b.) Silver is not used because it is an expensive metal and would probably cost a lot more to make coins with this metal than silver. 7.) a.) Silver would be most likely because it would most likely not react with anything and stay just Ag b.)Mg would more than likely be found combined with other elements because it was proven to e highly reactive. 8.)Yes you could have eliminated one and still have basically the same information. b.)You could have eliminated MgNO3 because it did not react with any of the metals.
Activity Series of Metals Assignment (Oxidation/Reduction Part I)
1. a. Mg is surrounded by a two-electron cloud b. Zn is also surrounded by a two-electron cloud. c. Zn2+ ions rise on top of the Mg metal to gain two electrons each to become Zn atoms d. But when Mg2+ ions rise to surface of the Zn metal no reaction occurs. 2. a. Mg2+ and Copper metal = No reaction b. Zn2+ and Copper metal = No reaction c. Cu2+ and Mg metal = Cu2+ ions gain two electrons each to become Cu atoms d.Cu2+ and Zn Metal = Cu2+ ions gain two electrons each to become Cu atoms
3. Ag+ and Mg Reactive. Mg+ ions gain an electron each to become Mg atoms Ag+ and Zn Reactive. Ag+ ions gain an electron each to become Mg atoms Zn2+ and Ag Not Reactive. Mg2+ and Ag Not Reactive.
4. Most reactive to least reactive is Mg Zn Cu Ag

ChemQuandary: They were probably the first elements to be discovered because they were the first elements to be found by themselves, rather than combined with other elements.
1a - from left to right, they go from most reactive to least reactive.
b - on the left side.
c - the right side.
2a - The iron will react with the lead nitrate because it is more reactive, and will lose electrons that will go into the lead nitrate solution
b - no because the lead nitrate solution is more reactive than the platinum.
c - already explained.
3a - yes, the less reactive metals are cheaper, because they require less work to obtain the metal. example: silver and gold can just be found, and you dont have to heat them or do anything to obtain the metal.

In the first one it is going through reduction because the negative electrons make the ion become negative. In the second one it is going through oxidation because the silver doesn’t really change. 3a. The copper is oxidized. 3b. The copper 4. So the ion isn't changed. 5a. The reducing agent must be the copper because the silver has to be reduced when the copper is reduced. 5b. The reducing agent is the atom that is needed to keep everything in balance when you are trying to reduce the ions. 6. on +2. Soon 12+7 Co.: in 7. The copper is oxidized. The Zinc is reduced. 8. The oxidizing agent is the zinc. The reducing agent is the copper. 9. You can just look at the equation because it shows you. The electron-dot diagram is if you cannot tell by the equation. 10. There is not enough information in the sequence so you would need to make a diagram.
